Hi, I’m Mary — a lifelong creator, entrepreneur, and educator with a background in business, mathematics and art. I hold a B.S. in Mathematics from Portland State University and launched my first business in 2016. Soon after, I spent six years running a nonprofit dedicated to empowering girls in mathematics — creating workshops and mentorship programs that helped young women see themselves as capable, curious problem-solvers.
In 2022, I opened a local art shop and gallery in Portland, showcasing emerging artists and makers. Many were bursting with creativity and ready to launch businesses, but they struggled with pricing, marketing, and managing the less-glamorous side of entrepreneurship. I noticed how often women, in particular, put others first and burned out in the process.
That’s why I created a coaching space where women can experiment, take creative risks, and gain practical business skills in a supportive, inspiring environment.
My mission is simple: to help women turn passion into possibility, build thriving creative businesses, and share their work with the world, without sacrificing their well-being or authenticity. I believe that when women are given the tools to lead, they rise.
My Mission
My mission is to help you step into leadership, build with confidence, and know you’re never alone in the process. I believe every woman has the power to create, lead, and thrive. I coach female artists, freelancers, and creatives to turn passion into sustainable business.
My Vision
My vision is to create a business landscape where women lead with innovative and empathetic approaches, breaking traditional norms and driving social impact with an emphasis on diversity, collaboration, and the empowerment of women to redefine success in entrepreneurship.
